This is not a rant just a sadness.
I got an email from an animal sanctuary I try and support as much as possible.
They have rescued, from slaughter horses including some elderly mares a lot from a stud.
They are desparate for money to cover food and vet bills.
We have been paying for our poorly 13+ Staffie and starting the process so her 9 year old daughter can have a dental so she can eat.
Both from rescue 2ish months ago.
I wish I had the money to help the sanctuary out.I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. Thomas A. Edison

For the last few years my garlic crop has been getting smaller, so I wanted to plant some fresh stock this year. Our local DIY sheds don't stock it so today I went to the local garden centre hoping they would have a decent choice. But I'd forgotten that every time I go in there they have less gardening stuff and more tat. They have no garlic at all. So I guess I'm going to have to chance my arm buying online from one of those two big seed companies I have bad experiences with.

Piggin %%****, **^$££ power companies.
A few years ago we changed our electric and gas supply to one of the smaller companies. £25 a month cheaper, a small number of easy to understand tariffs, UK call center etc.
Our plan comes to an end in a few weeks and they now have a brain numbing array of tariffs, premium cost phone number and want to increase our DD by £12 a month because of source costs. The woman I spoke to was less than helpfull even when I said we were £311 in credit. I did suggest she actually took the account info before continuing her script about unit costs etc.
Even BG and SSE can offer us cheaper for the same fixed period with cheaper unit and daily charges.
Why do some of the smaller companies challenge the Big 6 just to become one of them.

I will be spending half of my day off catching up with the work I would have done today, had it not been for a steady stream of people ranting at me for things I cannot even influence, never mind control. Followed by having a go at me for not having done what I would have been doing if they hadn’t been ranting in the first place.....
